I would question your assumption here. You are assuming that
the government actually needs to spend all the money that is
being used by the surplus FICA taxes.

It is odd that when taxes are increased, the government instantly
has no problem spending the money. When attempting to take money
away, the assumption is that all the money being spent is on
worthwhile programs.

How about a 21st century innovation to solve this problem: take
the money away from government and force them to find a way
to balance the budget.
